Short speaker bio examples

There are three key roles on a debate team: first speaker, second speaker and third speaker. While the first and second speakers concentrate on building a substantive case, the third speaker has a unique job in that he or she must use their time to attack their opponent’s case.

This guide will help you create an outline for your argument if you are the third speaker on your debate team.

Steps
